National Anthem Auditions Scheduled for Sat., January 30
Dirk Koetter Named Buccaneers Head Coach
Singers Sought for American and Canadian National Anthem
The Tampa Bay Buc-
caneers announced that
they have named Dirk
Koetter the 11th head
coach in franchise his-
tory. Koetter’s introduc-
tory press conference
will be held in the au-
ditorium at One Buc-
caneer Place beginning
at 2:00 p.m. today. The
event will also be carried
live on Buccaneers.com.
“We are excited to an-
nounce that Dirk Koetter
will lead the Buccaneers
as our new head coach,”
said Buccaneers Co-
Chairman Joel Glazer.
”Dirk has established
himself as one of the
top offensive coaches
in our game while en-
joying success at every
stop during his college
and NFL career. His
success with our offense
last season, along with
his familiarity with our
players and our organi-
zation, makes Dirk the
right man to lead our
team moving forward.”
In his first season with
Tampa Bay, serving as
the team’s offensive co-
ordinator, Koetter helped
pilot one of the most suc-
cessful offenses in the
NFL and one of the best
in team history. The team
set the franchise record
for total yards (6,014 –
357.0 per game), while
posting the second-most
rushing yards (2,162
–
135.1 per game) and
second-most passing
yards (3,852 – 240.8 per
game), along with the
fifth-most total points
(342 – 21.4 per game).
Tampa Bay ranked fifth
in the NFL in yards per
game (375.9), fifth in
rushing yards per game
(135.1) and second in
the league in rush aver-
age (4.75). It marked the
first time in franchise
history that the Bucca-
neers have finished in
the Top 5 in total offense.
Much of Tampa Bay’s
offensive success in
2015 came at the hands
of rookie quarterback
Jameis Winston, who
accounted for 28 total
touchdowns (22 passing,
6 rushing). Koetter also
helped guide Winston
to 4,042 passing yards,
which were the second-
most in a single season
in team history and the
third-most by a rookie
in NFL history. Win-
ston’s 22 passing touch-
downs were tied for the
fourth-most in a single
season in team history
and the fourth-most by
a rookie in NFL history.
His six rushing touch-
downs and 28 combined
touchdowns were the
most in a single season
by a Buccaneers quarter-
back, while his 28 total
touchdowns were tied
for the third-most by a
rookie in NFL history.
